Great Deal Near Hobby Airport

This Hotel was only 5 minutes from the airport, which was @ $5.00 by cab. I arrived late on a business trip (@1:30 am), and it was great to be out of baggage claim and in a comfortable bed in 15 minutes!
The hotel was clean and comfortable. The price was unbelievable, and it included a continental breakfast. Overall, this was a great deal that exceeded my expectations.

Short walk from hotel

Denny's is just a short to moderate walk down the road. Hey, if you're a business traveler without a car, a simple, decent meal that's within walking distance is perfect.

HO-LaQuinta

LaQuinta-IAH in Houston: Called direct @appx 6:30pm and they graciously have ONE suite for #99/nt. I get there within 2 hrs. I tell the clerk that I need a warm quiet bed for ONE night because I am leaving for an early flight. She puts me in a very nice, clean suite on the side that faces the FREEWAY. They must be really booked. As I look outside my window, which has a bright light post glaring through it (won't need a nightlight), I see only TWO cars parked on my side of the building. I finally get to sleep despite the very LOUD traffic noise. Awake a few times during the night (t0 be expected in "strange places"), I wake up at 5am for my 8:45 flight. Find that I only have shampoo, no lotion, no soap. I don't want to ask the front desk to bring anything up, so I make do with the shampoo as a shower gel. Honestly, were they SO booked that I HAD to be placed on the freeway side of the hotel; not like it's a plane that needs to have its weight balanced, right? Does the Housekeeper not make rounds to make sure the rooms are REALLY ready?Have to admit that [...]was very helpful at the front desk, though. I asked about directions to the rental car return and he was right on the money. Thanks for letting me vent.

Trip purpose:

nice, basic motel

This place was nothing fancy, but it was a nice, basic motel. The room was big and clean, the furniture was comfortable. It had a nice shower. The fridge and microwave were a nice touch.
It was right by hobby airport, and really convienient to where I got my rental car. Easy driving access to the highway, shopping and dining. There is a Dennys within a reasonable walk.
Breakfast was lacking, white bread to make toast, packaged little pastries and cold cereal. Something with protein, like yogurt cups, would have been nice.
I missed on the website that the internet access was wired, not wireless, and didn't bring a cord. Wireless would have been nice, but it was my bad for not paying attention.
Overall, if I was looking for a clean, inexpensive room, I would stay here again. And I would bring a cord.
